Critic reviews
"An attractive effort, the 2023 Gloria offers up aromas of dark berries and plums mingled with subtle hints of violets and licorice. It's medium to full-bodied, taut and lively, with good depth and persistence. This blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 10% Petit Verdot and 5% Cabernet France is the third and final vintage of organic conversion at Gloria."
William Kelley, April 2024, RobertParker.com
"The 2023 Gloria has a well-defined bouquet with a mixture of red and blueberry fruit, crushed violet and peony, quite Margaux-like in style. The palate is medium-bodied with finely tuned tannins, quite fresh and vibrant, not a powerful Saint-Julien but this has developed more clarity and nuance during its élevage. Very fine."
Neal Martin, February 2026, Vinous.com
"The 2023 Gloria is bright, punchy and super-expressive. Red-toned fruit, crushed flowers, white pepper and mocha are nicely dialed up. this super-classic Saint-Julien delivers the goods. Best of all, it should be a great value."
Antonio Galloni, April 2024, Vinous.com
"Deep but also floral on the nose, with crushed violets, fine dark spices, morello cherries and blueberries. Fleshy, al-dente and almost full-bodied, with fresh, fine-grained tannins and a long, juicy and expressive finish with lots of blue fruit. A blend of 50% cabernet sauvignon, 35% merlot, 10% petit verdot and 5% cabernet franc. Drink from 2027."
